As many of you know, The Neighbors have been on hiatus from the live concert scene as of late; the main reason being that our drummer has been vacationing in China, and he was in Florida before that, but he laid down some nice drum tracks before he left. We've been spending a lot of time in the studio working on the demo and writing new songs. Once we get the new demo totally polished, we'll be playing out and touring some more around Columbus, hopefully even beyond.
Also in recent news, Jim and I just got some new geetars!
I am now the proud owner of a Takamine 530SSC dreadnought acoustic/electric guitar. She sure is a beaut, and it's very inspiring to have a nice new guitar to play. The dreadnought body gives it a nice loud, but very bright sound.
Jim bought a Floyd Rose Stratocaster. Let me tell you, it plays like a dream and has a really sweet tone. It's the same sort of custom Strat that David Gilmour of Pink Floyd played, that's why they're called Floyd Rose.
We've been gettin into some real nice jams with our new equipment, and coming up with new material. I'm learning how to play the mandolin for the Yellowstone song, and I think we should have a big jam party when JD gets back.
Also, Check out the new lyrics posted on the live Amused and Code for Love videos, as well as the Deaf Generation Music video.
In even further news, Jim and I just recorded a bunch of the songs on the grand piano at Hughes Hall, and I filmed the session, so look out for those new vids.
